Weaving Care: A Panel on Disability and Craft
Join us as artists Indira Allegra, Francisco echo Eraso, and Raisa Kabir weave through a conversation on disability, craft, textile processes, grief, stimming, care, collectivity, access, joy, creative labor and the interconnectedness of it all. A gentle invocation into the possibilities and powerful potential of craft to reflect how queer crip artists are imagining and co-dreaming of ways to refashion and restructure access in our living worlds. Guests will be invited to participate in a collective care exercise during this virtual event. Please join us with textile based materials, such as thread, yarn, lint and hair. All are encouraged to bring any other tactile based materials or stim objects of your preference. This event is presented as part of the current gallery exhibition Indisposable: Tactics for Care and Mourning, on view through December 10. Live captioning, ASL interpretation and Spanish interpretation will be provided for this online event.
